They have a large Friday menu, hamburgers, seafood, catfish, shrimp french fries cheese, fries, chili cheese, fries, wings, combo hotdog, sausage, chicken crabcakes, and all the drink you can think of they also have beer. Service was friendly a clean just a regular old-fashioned food joint. Looks like it's some dried out in 1985 or 75. I got the catfish poor boy I'll let you know how. IT was moist and savory catfish with a tangy good seasoned breading. read more

Good ole flame broiled burgers. There is seafood & hotdogs. Good eat. Staff is very friendly.

Bud's is what it is. No other burgers taste like them and the hot dogs are yummy! I did get a piece of fish rather than the apple pie that I ordered, but it was lunch rush and this isn't fine dining. It's Bud's. Get some if you see one! read more

Bud's Broiler - Fish that I got instead of apple pie, but to be fair they are the same color lol - Burgers Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Had lunch today ..20 min order to pickup Burger very small, cheese sprinkled on top not melted, meat overcooked and Luke warm...$6.00 for burger $3.25 for tea Haven't been on years now I know why skip this place horrible read more

You can't go wrong at Bud's Broiler. It's my favorite Hamburger place. I usually go for number 3 and add some hickory sauce on the side. I hope they bring back their pies again. read more

My wife introduced me to Bud's and I am impressed. The burgers are cooked over charcoal, which gives them a nice char and taste that is even better than the flame-broiled burgers elsewhere. Instead of being perfectly round and uniform, the patties are a little irregular like somebody actually patted out the burger patty. The charcoal makes the hot dogs and the chicken over-the-top as well. The buns are soft and fresh. The lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions toppings are fresh and crunchy. (Look at the slab of tomato in my photo!) The fries are only OK, skinny and unseasoned. You can eat a pile of them and still be hungry so order a Large. The ambiance is very casual - you order/pay at the counter and they call your number when your food is ready. It can get crowded and loud at peak times, but I always manage to find a seat. The food comes out fairly quickly. It's not a place with mega-burgers and a zillion weird toppings so If that's what you want then look elsewhere. If you want a simple burger and fries (comfort food!) Bud's is hard to beat. They give you a discount if you pay with cash rather than plastic, so bring some cash money and save a little bit. read more

This Buds Broiler on Jefferson Hwy not as good as Causeway. The burgers were over cooked. The staff was not friendly. The ketchup dispenser ran out I asked the lady for ketch up and told her it was out she said hand me the container. lol. So I did. Waited for her to change it out then she handed it back to me and asked me to put it back. Restaurants was clean. Onion ring were super greasy. So do yourself a favor and go to Causeway Buds Broiler. read more

Well all I could do is take a picture of the menu and bag this time. I was hungry and in a hurry. I got the #2 minus the onions. Also got fries and a drink.  This burger was everything. It was fresh and succulent and didn't last five minutes. I devoured it and loved every minute. They do burgers the right way. It was good to have a real burger, unlike the typical ones you get from the burger chains. The fries were pretty good also. I was greeted kindly when I walked through the door. Great meal and great service. I'll be back. read more

I've been to many Bud's Broiler locations over the years although many of the ones I used to visit no longer exist. Somehow this was my first visit to this one. This spot I have known about for a long time though as it did stay open late for many years but these days, like so many other spots, it no longer stays open late. You get your usual Bud's Broiler experience here with all the expected menu items. I did notice an item here that somehow, over all the years, I had never noticed before in the form of the Big Bud Burger. I was rather intrigued by this larger better sounding Big Bud Burger so of course I had to try it! After my experience with the Big Bud Burger I doubt I will ever get any of the other Bud's burgers again as the Big Bud was such a massive improvement over anything else I've ever had at Bud's Broiler. In fact I think I'm going to be a dedicated Big Bud Burger eater from this point forward! Overall Bud's Broiler seems to have been declining over the years and recently the decline seems to have been getting faster and deeper but I was glad to find the Big Bud Burger which has made a stand against that decline effect with a very nice and large burger. read more

Great, juicie grilled chicken. Been around for years. I gotta say that I have eaten here for over 50 years.

The best place to grab a burger and fries. The food is ready quickly and the service is great. It's clean and the atmosphere is very friendly. read more

Their service is horrible, this restaurant is very rude and racist. I wouldn't recommend to anyone, I was looking to order food from here and was disgusted by the person who answered the phone. read more

Been a long time since I went to Bud's. Got the #4 double with sauce and onions. Easy chocolate shake and fries. Once again, a place I used to frequent quite a bit when we lived in NOLA, but isn't something that always comes to mind when coming to town. Sunday night, we felt like a quick meal - let's go to Bud's! The staff was wicked sweet. This is what we miss when you go to places not in New Orleans. Now I have to say my local BBQ place in Bama is pretty sweet, but they see me all the time. The Bud's staff treated us like friends when we walked in. My burger was fantastic. That sauce, the onions.. give it to me! Sent pics to my son and he was bummed, yet again, that his family couldn't make this trip. I did my job :) read more

lunchtime today, 1:30 ish waiting in line behind a man waiting to place an order. chaos at the counter, one lady was mopping the floor right at the cashier side, she had clear plastic gloves on, i watched her use the mop, pick up wet damp papertowels that were on the floor, and then proceed to grab a ground meat pattie and put it on the grill. and the other lady said to me " what are you peeping at? " I said " she just was mopping and picking up dirty wet papertowels on the floor and with the same hands grab a ground meat pattie to put on the grill" They both looked at me like I was crazy. I turned around and left. I will NEVER eat at this location ever again. I did not want to leave a STAR at all, review would not let me skip this. BUT this store does not rate even a 1 star. read more

As one of the few Bud's left in the area, we try to eat here as often as we can (2-3 times per month). The service is always prompt, the food is fresh and the service is always friendly. I love this place. read more

#4 with hickory sauce and onions! I could eat these all day. Nice and clean on the inside. Updated menu 7.21.21 read more

Yikes! This was probably the worst burger I've ever had! I gave 2/5 stars because the service was great! I ordered the #4 with chili. My boyfriend ordered the #4 also fully dressed. The patty was thin and both burgers barely had chili on them. The fries were fresh but lacked any seasoning. I would never recommend this place. To anyone. read more

Delicious hamburgers &grilled chicken. Very nice people behind the counter. A great place for fairly fast takeout or good area for dine in. We enjoyed it & plan to come again! read more

I mean, it's Bud's. Always consistent, alway cheap, (almost) always a fun altercation to relay to friends. This Jefferson Highway location is tucked away and usually not very busy. #4 Meat with sauce and fries was as good as ever. read more

Bud's Broiler - #4 Meat w/ Hickory Sauce + Fresh Fries - Burgers Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

I had a really pleasant lunch here. The Smokey sauce burger is amazing and the fries are darn good too. Get the sauce on everything. There's not much more to it. Nice people. read more

service was horrible. I waited ten minutes just to get ignored and someone who came 8 minutes after me reciev service before me. then I waited twenty minutes after my order was supposed to be ready. horrible service. next time I will go with Ben's burger. I was waiting on an order of cheese fries and they decided to help out three other people and serve them french fries who came in 15 minutes after me. I'm doing mobile orders and it's hard to make money when your food isn't getting ready till 20 minutes after it's supposed to be ready. Shape up y'all are better than us. read more

Been coming here my whole life and it never gets old. They have the best chargrilled burgers and chili cheese fries. I always have to stop when I'm near by. read more

If you love Bud's you will deal with even a poorly run location. However, this is a well run one. Always fast and fresh. Mine is a #4 w/hickory smoke and no onions. If you are a local, you know the burger. If you are from out of town, you really should try it. Their burger meat is nothing special. But how they cook it mixed with the fresh shredded cheese and sauce make this one of my favorite burgers in the country. I grew up eating at Bud's and now when I visit this location has become my preference due to consistency. read more

Bud's Broiler - #4 with Hickory Smoke & No Onions - Love it SOOO Much! - Burgers Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

As a regular customer at Bud's Broiler I was shocked at the customer service my family and I received. The restaurant closed at 8 and we walked in at 7. The cashier (a woman who's name I don't know) would not even look up to greet us or say hello. We asked if y'all are closing soon and she rudely said "we close as 8" as if we didn't know and she was sarcastic. Bud's Broiler is an amazing restaurant and I will always love the burgers, unfortunately not at this location. ((4101 Jefferson Hwy New Orleans, LA 70121 United States) Maybe a better cashier could make this restaurant more inviting. read more

Post-Saints loss and we were so hungry! We often hit this area because it's convenient to City Park & a streetcar stop (CityPark/Cemeteries). FYI, don't tell on yourself by saying trolley... it's a streetcar in New Orleans - just ask Stanley, Stella, Blanche, and Tennessee. So we pop in and the sweet, tangy smell hits you right away along with the smell of the burgers on the grill. There are several different options, but I like classic so I went with the #6 Dressed Cheddar burger. Side of fries. Side of their famous bbq sauce. Talk about satisfying! It was cooked well, but not dry and the shredded cheese adds depth as opposed to sliced cheese that slides off hot sandwiches. If you're craving a burger, this place has you covered. Four stars due to tables and main area needing to be bussed more regularly. Customers toss their own trash, but should be able to find a table that has been cleaned and is salt & spill-free. read more

Bud's Broiler - Burgers Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

It's in a strip mall off of Jefferson. I have been here three times; once with friends the day after Isaac visited NOLA, once alone 4 days after the hurricane, and once for take away. Reasons to go: 1) Good food. The value of the quality is amazing. This pro alone is worth overcoming the top two negatives below. 2) Unique chili dogs; sliced franks in half on flame-toasted buns... 3) Wi-Fi. Haven't used it but they offer it. At least that's what the posterboard with sharpie sign displays on the counter. 4) Efficiency & versatility behind the counter. The people behind the counter can do multiple jobs well. I was impressed. 5) This place might be a high 2 star or a low 3 except that they were open and functioning well post-hurricane when everyone else was closed. Outstanding! Reasons to avoid: 1) Ca$h only! ATM is on sight. This sucks because I never carry cash...ever. So it's an extra $2.50 (im guessing at the ATM fee here) to pull out $20 and pay for a $9 dollar meal. This is the definition of 'hassle' 2) Small town feel. From the 80's wood paneling that echoes single-wides of yesteryear to the attitude of the staff ringing "Didja bring that rain with ya?", this place exudes small town. This is a big negative for me. Small town hates outsiders but tolerate you when you have a descent attitude and pay without asking stupid questions about the menu items, or when they plan on accepting credit cards or if they have a gold member's club that allows free fricken refills. 3) No stinking drink refills. If you want to piss this guy off, have him pay $2 for a stinking fountain drink and not allow refills. Ugh. *Neutral note: The first time I visited the tables weren't wiped down and set up the second and third times they were. The place seemed orderly and halfway clean 2/3 of the time. read more

My coworkers and I went here. It was my first time. I had the smoke sausage with large fries. I poured a little salt on my fries. It was really good. I also had the burger later on. The food is reasonably priced. I think I would've enjoyed the burger better if it was sliced cheese. The shredded cheese threw me off. I am going to try the brisket sandwich and give an update later. read more

Classic flavors from a no frills burger joint. The decor is outdated but somehow still feels appropriate for what it is.

Love this location. Staff is always super friendly. They're requiring masks and being very safe during COVID.

We had the chicken with cheese and a hamburger with cheese. Both were really good and the people at the counter are super nice. Tip: place it in the glass pitcher on the counter for faster service. That's about the biggest tip of all. read more

This place is a New Orleans classic. Got myself my usual: #4 with hickory sauce and chili cheese fries! Always hits the spot!! So yummy!

Are you people kidding me? Buds Broilers food is a joke. If you're looking for a half-assed burger come here. If you're looking for paying too much for small portions come here. If you're looking for hickory sauce that really isn't ALL THAT, come here. If you like eating shitty tasting fries (never tasted shit, but I'd imagine that it taste something like their fries) come here. I regret spending my money here. I don't know what the hype is about this franchise. read more

Ok I'll admit it. This isn't the Bud's Broiler on City Park Avenue which, in my humble opinion, is THE best Bud's Broiler in the city. However, this Bud's Broiler on Jefferson Hwy is the closest one to my house so it's better than no Bud's at all. (God forbid.) #4 Grated cheddar cheese, hickory smoked sauce and add extra onions. #9 Charbroiled hot dog with hickory smoked sauce and add extra cheddar cheese Order of Fries Large Root Beer I mean, honestly, I can probably recite the friggin menu in my sleep. Has it really changed at all since I was a kid? Hopefully not. Anyhoo, this Bud's Broiler gets the job done when I need my Bud's fix. The place is pretty clean, the line is never too long and plenty of parking. Like I said, it's no City Park Bud's, but it's still Bud's nevertheless. read more

Good food fast. That's Bud's Broiler. I've bee eating here since I was a kid. Every location has a different quality standard it seems. There's a guy that works at this one that seems to keep quality high. The meat is cooked on a real charcoal grill. I love the hot dogs and the burgers. The hot dogs are sliced and then grilled, served on a round bun. The chili is good and just hot enough to melt the fresh grated (I think) cheese. The burger patties are thin and full of charcoal-grilled flavor. The house sauce is the perfect pairing to the burgers, but they put a lot on so beware. The fries by themselves suck, but cover them in chili and cheese and they are yumstuffs. The place is dated and divery with video poker machines and a few video games. It is also clean and cozy. read more

I don't see why this place is highly rated. I really didn't like it. I checked it out one day because it is close to where I live. The customer service wasn't very good. The clerk seemed rather anti-social and not very talkative. I had to tell him 2 times what I wanted to eat before he heard me. I ordered the burger which had hickory sauce and onions. Without the hickory sauce the burger would have lacked any flavor what so ever. I think that is why they doused it in sauce. The texture of the patties also threw me off. The fries were nothing special either. All the food here is frozen and NOT fresh. This place had some entertainment value They had some video poker machines and a few arcade games. However the jukebox only had southern mullet music on it. I am not really that big of a fan of The Doobie brothers, Molly Hatchet, or Ram Jam. In short there are way better burger joints in town! read more

They raised the prices but didn't change their menu sign!!!!!!! A fish on bun used to cost around $4, now it's over $7! If I were the one who went in and ordered it, I would've cancelled my order, but my husband is more understanding than me. You don't charge people more than the prices on your physical menu, and then say" oh sorry, our prices went up"! Our days of getting buds broiler are over. The main appeal is that it was cheap. read more

They made us buy something to use the bathroom and their fries were not salty and I saw a roach in the bathroom

The per son that look up the pre-made food was great. The guy that packaged it in the bag was careless. Fries were upside down in the bag weather practically unwrapped and he did not give me the sauces I paid for properly. It's like he could care less read more

I came here during Hurricane Isaac and was starving since nothing else was open. This could possibly be why I thought this place was so incredible. "Probably one of the best burgers I have ate in awhile. The prices are incredibly cheap and the food tastes fantastic. My only complaint is that the fries make me feel like a fatty, they are so small that I end up ordering two orders." read more
